May Update

Hello,

We are headed off to the farm today and I will post some pictures of our day there I thought I would write and check in.  

1.  Thank you for the feedback of not being able to find the field trip details.  I will have to think of a way to name posts or structure the page so that you can quickly go back and look at the information.  

2.  OAKS testing will begin for the 2nd round next week.  Only students who did not meet the 3rd grade bench mark will be tested again.  We will test starting Wednesday of next week and then we will have another day the following week which is TBD.  

3.  I am sorry that the walking field trip had to be scheduled on the same day as the campout.  It is a bummer but we didn’t have any choices.  We have to be far enough along in the storyline to have written our articles but not so far along that we will not have time to print out the paper.  Unfortunately those two things collided this week.  If you are a campout parent and you are feeling like you have a million and one things to do that day I can offer you a few options to help.  A) You can decide not to go on our trip we have more than enough volunteers.  B) You can drive down and meet us for lunch.  I haven’t determined the lunch spot just yet but this could be a crucial job so that we do not have to carry around our lunches.  C.) You could drive down and meet us for 1/2 the day and then take off.  I know this will be hectic for you so if you decide that you need to bow out, I think the rest of us can handle it.  

4.  June 10th is our culmination.  Time is still TBD.  Do you guys have a preference for time of day?
